Eugène Simonis, lithograph by Charles Baugniet published in Les Artistes Contemporains (1836)

Louis-Eugène Simonis (Шаблон:IPA-fr; 11 July 1810, in Liège – 11 July 1893, in Koekelberg) was a Belgian sculptor.[1]

Career

Simonis studied under François-Joseph Dewandre at the Academie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Liège and at the age of nineteen went to Italy, where he continued his studies in Bologna and Rome.[2] When he returned to Belgium he accepted an instructor position at the Liege Academy. Later he moved to Brussels, where he became the director of the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts. Among his many students were the Belgian sculptors Thomas Vinçotte, Julien Dillens, and Charles Samuel.

The square in Brussels, where Simonis had his studio, was given the name Eugène Simonis Square in his honor. A metro station in Brussels, completed in 1982, bears his name. In 2007, a bust of Simonis by Annie Junger was unveiled at Simonis Square.[3]
